These working fluids containing noble metals (gold, silver) are known for their local surface plasmon resonance which is the main cause for the increased absorption within the solar spectrum. In the current paper, new direct absorption solar collectors prototypes using water-ethylene glycol solution and 0.1 wt.% silver nanoparticles + reduced graphene oxide dispersed in water-ethylene glycol mixture were designed, built, and tested under outdoor conditions, at two flow rates (1.0 and 1.5 l·min⁻¹) and two inlet temperatures (20 <span>(^circ{rm C})</span> and 30 <span>(^circ{rm C})</span>), over several days in September 2023, at Brasov, Romania. The results suggested that by using silver nanoparticles + reduced graphene oxide nanofluid, the efficiency is improved related to water-ethylene glycol solution. The maximum relative enhancement in efficiency was 16.72% related to the base fluid. Also, at 1.0 l·min⁻¹, the instantaneous and accumulative energies delivered were about 13.51% and 42.91%, respectively, higher than the water-ethylene glycol solution.

Accurate thermodynamic modeling of these compounds is essential for enhancing their utilization and optimizing industrial processes. Among the advanced models available, the Statistical Associating Fluid Theory (SAFT) type equation of state (EoS) stands out for its effectiveness in capturing the thermodynamic behavior of complex fluids. This study employs the PρT-SAFT, PρT-PC-SAFT, PC-SAFT, and CPA EoSs to model pure monoethylene glycol (MEG), diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), and their mixtures. Furthermore, the predictive capabilities of these models are critically evaluated for polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400). The performance of the PρT-SAFT, PρT-PC-SAFT, PC-SAFT, and CPA EoSs was evaluated for predicting key thermodynamic properties, including density, thermal expansion coefficient, isothermal compressibility, isobaric heat capacity, speed of sound, and saturated vapor pressure, for pure MEG, DEG, TEG, and PEG 400. Among the models, the PρT-SAFT demonstrated superior accuracy in modeling their properties. Subsequently, the volumetric properties and vapor–liquid equilibrium data of binary mixtures of MEG, DEG, and TEG were predicted using the same EoSs, without incorporating any binary interaction parameters. Under these conditions, the PρT-SAFT achieved the highest accuracy. Furthermore, predictions of the volumetric properties for the ternary mixture of MEG, DEG, and TEG also indicated that the PρT-SAFT outperformed the other models. The overall average absolute deviation percentages for the PρT-SAFT, PρT-PC-SAFT, PC-SAFT, and CPA EoSs across all examined thermodynamic properties and systems were 7.0, 8.2, 22.2, and 30.2, respectively, confirming the robustness of the PρT-SAFT.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"46 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10765-025-03505-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143109784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these materials may present challenges in terms of application and sustainability. This study aims to develop a perlite-based thermal insulation board that is Class A fire-resistant, competitive with traditional insulation materials, and possesses optimal physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. In the production of the specimens, expanded perlite, liquid sodium silicate, and silicon powder were used, and tests for apparent density, compressive-flexural strength, capillary water absorption, and thermal conductivity were conducted in accordance with EN standards. In the first stage, the produced specimens were subjected to four different activation temperatures to determine the optimal process temperature. In the second stage, the ratios of perlite, sodium silicate, and water were varied to achieve the mixture design that yielded the highest mechanical properties from the specimens. In the final stage, water-repellent admixtures were incorporated into the batches at mass ratios of 1.5 %, 3 %, 4.5 %, and 6 %. The perlite-based thermal insulation board, which offers optimal properties in the most cost-effective manner, has an apparent density of 127 kg·m⁻³, compressive strength of 266 kPa, flexural strength of 156 kPa, capillary water absorption value of 0.0197 kg·m⁻²·min^−0.5, thermal conductivity of 0.0475 Wm⁻¹·K⁻¹, and a unit cost of 97 $ m⁻³.

Despite a century’s development with hundreds of resulting cubic EoS, their accuracy in liquid phase density calculations is still unsatisfactory. In this work, a new cubic EoS was developed to improve the accuracy of liquid phase density calculation while keeping similar accuracy of other properties. The new cubic EoS, named YFR (Yang-Frotscher-Richter) EoS, was developed based on the functional form of the Patel–Teja (PT) EoS [<i>p</i> = <i>RT</i>/(<i>v</i> − <i>b</i>) − <i>a</i>/(<i>v</i>(<i>v</i> + <i>b</i>) + <i>c</i>(<i>v</i> − <i>b</i>)]. In the PT EoS, parameters <i>b</i> and <i>c</i> are linked to an empirical critical compressibility factor <i>ξ</i>_c, and all these three parameters are constants for a pure fluid. By contrast, in the YFR EoS, <i>ξ</i>_c, <i>b</i>, and <i>c</i> are functions of temperature, and the equations describing this dependency were developed with symbolic regression. This is the key to improving liquid phase density calculation, although it leads to thermodynamic inconsistencies at high pressures. The application range of the new cubic EoS is thus limited to pressures up to 100 MPa. The YFR EoS was developed using nearly all pure fluids available in NIST’s REFPROP 10.0 database, with reference values computed with REFPROP. The average of the absolute value of relative deviations (AARD) of liquid phase densities calculated with the YFR EoS from reference values is approximately 2 %, compared to 3 % when using the Patel–Teja–Valderrama (PTV) EoS and 6 % when using the Peng-Robinson (PR) EoS. The YFR EoS has been implemented in our self-developed OilMixProp 1.0 software package.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"46 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10765-024-03490-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143109785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
